I bought this canopy for a remodel we decided to do in our daughters bedroom. We suspended the canopy on cafe rods from the ceiling. We also purchased the Grafton Metal bed and the Carson Forge nightstand, chest and computer desk. The metal accents match the bed almost perfectly. We strung lights(Glimmer String) around the top of the canopy and it looks amazing. My girl LOVES her new room, we are very pleased with this purchase.
